God: Velmeran
Other Names: Meran, Ancient One, The Scholar, The Great Sage / Holy Symbol: Open Book

Thought to be the oldest and most powerful of the gods, Velmeran is the god of history and knowledge. He's particularly fond of people who spend their lives in the pursuit of knowledge and hates the term "faith" because the definition is belief without evidence. Those who cultivate knowledge and store history on the page and in story make Velmeran happy.

He cares about the events on Boden, but is the one who insists on gods interfering as little as possible. It is not out of callousness but out of care. A people who endure hardship grow stronger and become self-sufficient. A people who grow to depend on someone else will wither without help. But despite this, Velmeran does occasionally encourage his angels and followers to help those who need it. He recognizes that sometimes a people can be subjected to circumstances that are far beyond their means.

Scholars, Investigators, Librarians, Teachers, and those in Law Enforcement often follow Velmeran. His devout followers usually take the title Cleric, and spend their efforts on gathering knowledge and sharing it.

Those who wish to stay in his favor will never try to fool anyone for personal gain. Tricking a foe can be acceptable, but lying to normal people... denying them knowledge is an affront to Velmeran. In the same vein, Velmeran prefers collaboration to competition. People working together can accomplish anything, and the kind of competition where one side will suffer to allow another to prosper is distasteful to Velmeran. Finally, one must never destroy knowledge. To purposely hide information is the wrong path.
